Has new Yankee Stadium become so gentrified that it’s now an easy place to play?

According to Tigers’ outfielder Quintin Berry, it is.

“This is a very easy place to play now,” Berry told Yahoo! Sports. “Coming from Oakland, the fans there were so rowdy. It was easier to come here.”

The Oakland Coliseum is known more for tarps being over the seldom-needed upper deck rather than having an electric atmosphere that used to exist at the old Yankee Stadium.

In this current ALCS, the Yankees have gone down 2-0 to the Tigers in the best-of-seven series, and the thing the fans have done most to be noticed is boo their home team with a biting vitriol.

“Our fans haven’t had much to cheer about, so you can’t blame them,” said Alex Rodriguez, a major point of fans’ contention by going 3-for23 in the playoffs and often being benched. “You’ve got to blame us. If I was sitting there, I’d be perplexed, too. We didn’t score any runs. What the hell are you going to cheer about?”

Jeff Passan, a writer for Yahoo! Sports, also had a story on Saturday that claimed ushers were told to move fans from the upper deck to the lower, more expensive, seats seen on television.
